Ha....shows what you know! It wasn't an electrical fire it was a battery fire. Didn't you read, baw?

This is fishy AF
What is so fishy about a car crashing that didn't have anyone behind the wheel? You sound about as dumb as the deceased. It's a vehicle, it requires an operator to drive the damn thing.
Yes I know it was supposed to be a vehicle that could drive itself. I stand by my original statement. Also, I would find all fault on the occupants of the vehicle. If you choose to be a guinea pig, that's on you.

Well, it certainly does with that attitude.

The ole reach around gone wrong
Yeah, probably hard to get a good grip when the steering wheel is in the way. Move to the passenger seat. Problem solved.

These thread always deliver some good entertainment.

The report is the car was going excessively over the speed limit. Autopilot won't go 5 mph over the speed limit. If I had to guess these darwin award winners floored it and lost control and hit a tree. With no seat belt on they bounced all around the inside of the car.

Breaking news, make sure you stay behind the wheel in vehicles that can't drive themselves.

Seems like a very plausible reason for a car to crash... but I am no expert.

Yeah that's not how you're supposed to do it.

first responders had to use 30,000 gallons of water over four hours to put out the fire, as the Tesla’s battery kept reigniting. Authorities tried to contact Tesla for advice on putting out the fire;
I’ll give you a hint...not water.
Should have used sand.

Not according to Tesla. Lots of water is correct.

Then they’re the dumbasses, electrical fire not Tesla specific

I thought someone always had to be in the drivers seat of those things?
Posted on 4/18/21 at 5:28 pm to NolaLovingClemsonFan
Nah, that’s just what Tesla recommends

Somebody, anybody PLEASE take these driverless cars off the road. I am for advancements in technology but this is ridiculous. What if instead of plowing into a tree the thing had hit some family in another car.
As for the two killed in the Tesla? You should never get a car without a driver. It's unsafe. There I said it.
